In June, Doug attended Velo-city, an annual cycling summit hosted by the European Cyclists’ Federation that brings the bike world together. This year’s conference was held in the Belgian city of Ghent. While there, Doug wandered the exhibition floor talking with people from all over the world — including elected officials, city planners, advocates, industry representatives, academics and bike-curious regular citizens — about why it was important for them to attend Velo-city and what lessons and knowledge they hoped to take home. As you’ll hear in this bonus episode, the fight to make cities safer, more sustainable and more equitable truly is a global effort.
Thanks to the European Cyclists’ Federation for having The War on Cars at Velo-City and to Ali Lemer for editing this episode.
